On March 31, 2023, the Company acquired all of the shares of Gelnex, a leading global producer of collagen products (the “Gelnex Acquisition”). The Gelnex Acquisition includes a network of five processing facilities in South America and one in the United States. The initial purchase price of approximately $1.2 billion was comprised of an initial cash payment of approximately $1.1 billion, which consisted of a payment of approximately R$4.3 billion Brazilian real (approximately $855.1 million USD at the exchange rate of R$5.0812:USD$1.00 on the closing date) and a payment of approximately $243.5 million in USD, and is subject to various post-closing adjustments in accordance with the stock purchase agreement. In addition, the Company incurred a liability of approximately $104.1 million for acquisition consideration hold-back amounts that are part of the purchase price set aside in escrow in the Company's name for possible indemnification claims by the Company, which amounts will be paid to the sellers in the future if no claims arise. The hold-back amount represents a noncash investing activity during the period of acquisition. The Gelnex Acquisition gives us immediate capacity to serve the growing needs of our collagen customers and the growing gelatin market. The initial purchase price was financed by borrowing all of the Company's term A-3 facility of $300.0 million and term A-4 facility of $500.0 million, with the remainder coming through revolver borrowings under the Company's Amended Credit Agreement.

As the Gelnex Acquisition occurred on the last business day of the first quarter, and the Company preliminarily allocated the purchase price of the acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on a provisional basis using methods based on historical experience, with the excess of the purchase price over the aggregate provisional fair values recorded as goodwill.

The above amounts are provisional in nature and are subject to change during the measurement period if additional information about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date becomes available. The Company is in the ongoing process of conducting a valuation of all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to the acquisition including identifiable intangible assets, personal and real property, deferred taxes and others, including possible future purchase price adjustments related to working capital and taxes. The Company has engaged third party valuation experts to assist in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed using the income, market or cost approaches (or a combination thereof).

The $630.7 million of goodwill from the Gelnex Acquisition, which is expected to strengthen the Company's gelatin business and expand its ability to service increased demand of its collagen customer base, is assigned to the Food Ingredients segment. Of the preliminary goodwill booked in the Gelnex Acquisition approximately $506.4 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The identifiable intangibles of $284.0 million have preliminarily been recorded as other intangible assets. Due to the fact that the Company is in the process of conducting a valuation of all the assets acquired, certain other disclosures regarding the type and weighted average life of intangibles is not known at this time and will be updated when the information becomes available.

The final fair value of the net assets acquired may result in adjustments to these assets and liabilities, including goodwill, which may be significant. If new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, the Company will adjust its measurement of provisional amounts recorded, thus the final determination of the values presented in the above table of assets acquired and liabilities assumed may result in retrospective adjustments to the values presented with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. During the second quarter ended July 1, 2023 immaterial amounts have been adjusted to goodwill.

The amount of net sales and net income (loss) from the Gelnex Acquisition included in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for both the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 were $91.2 million and $(19.1) million, respectively. The Company incurred acquisition costs related to the Gelnex Acquisition for the three and six months ended July 1, 2023 of approximately $0.1 million and $5.9 million, respectively.

On August 1, 2022, the Company acquired all of the shares of the FASA Group, the largest independent rendering company in Brazil, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated May 5, 2022 (the “FASA Acquisition”). The FASA Group, with its 14 rendering plants and an additional two plants under construction at the time of acquisition, will supplement the Company's global supply of waste fats, making it a leader in the supply of low-carbon waste fats and oils.

The Company initially paid approximately R$2.9 billion Brazilian real in cash (approximately $562.6 million USD at the exchange rate in effect on the closing date of the acquisition) for all the shares of the FASA Group, subject to certain post closing adjustments and a contingent payment based on future earnings growth in accordance with the terms set forth in the stock purchase agreement. Under the stock purchase agreement, such contingent payment could range from R$0 to a maximum of R$1.0 billion if future earnings growth reaches certain levels over a three-year period. The Company completed an initial analysis as of the acquisition date for this contingency and recorded a liability of approximately R$867.5 million (approximately $168.1 million USD at the exchange rate in effect on the closing date of the acquisition) representing the present value of the maximum contingency under the income approach.

As disclosed in Note 2(g), as a result of the immaterial out-of-period correction identified during the quarter ended July 1, 2023, utilizing assistance from external valuation experts and the use of a Monte Carlo model, the Company determined the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration was R$428.2 million (approximately $83.0 million USD at the exchange rate in effect on the closing date of the acquisition) representing the probability weighted present value of the expected payment to be made under the agreement using the income approach, resulting in an overstatement of the fair value of the contingent consideration liability of approximately $85.1 million. The immaterial out-of-period correction reduced the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration liability and goodwill

associated with the FASA Acquisition by approximately $85.1 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2023. The Company will analyze the contingent consideration liability using a Monte Carlo model each quarter and any change in fair value will be recorded through operating income as changes in fair value of contingent consideration including the accretion of the change in the long-term liability.

The hold-back and contingent consideration amounts represent a noncash investing activity during the period of acquisition. The Company initially financed the FASA Acquisition by borrowing approximately $515.0 million of revolver borrowings under the Company's Amended Credit Agreement, with the remainder coming from cash on hand. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company made immaterial working capital adjustments and made a cash payment for working capital purchase price adjustment per the stock purchase agreement of approximately $7.1 million with an offset to goodwill. The Company obtained new information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date during the first and second quarter of 2023 that resulted in measurement period adjustments to increase property, plant and equipment by approximately $81.5 million, decrease intangible assets by approximately $41.7 million, decrease goodwill by approximately $21.5 million, increase deferred tax liabilities by approximately $16.0 million and increase other assets and liabilities by approximately $2.3 million, with the net impact of the adjustments to the consolidated statement of operations being immaterial.

The following table summarizes the final fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the FASA Acquisition as of August 1, 2022 at the exchange rate of R$5.16:USD$1.00 (in thousands), as adjusted for the immaterial out of period correction disclosed in Note 2(g) and inclusive of all measurement adjustments recorded:
